TGI Fry-Day: Fried Valentine's Bouquet

It's TGI Fry-Day, but this week is extra special because it's also Valentine's Eve (if that's not a real day, it should be!).
This week, I decided to fry up an extra special somethin' for my extra special someone. Behold the Fried Valentine's Bouquet, a collection of tasty fried lollipops presented in a beautiful table arrangement.
Although the collection of fried morsels can be altered to suit your tastes, I settled on a mix of blue cheese stuffed olives, marinaded beef strips, ginger shrimp, 1/4 inch sweet potato, fresh artichokes, and broccoli. Each item was stuck with a 6 inch wooden skewer then dipped in season flour, then beaten egg, then panko.

Fry lollipops in individual batches for approximately 5-7 minutes at 350 degrees until golden brown. Drain on paper towels then begin carefully placing into a vase (if vase if too deep you can add crumpled paper to the bottom so that skewers are elevated) to create a fried bouquet as pictured!





You have presented a very nice edible bouquet.Edible bouquet will surely impress your partner.
